The Alchemical Wedding, part 2: Yellow
Alchemical Wedding, 9”x12”, pen and ink, encaustic, oil pastel, bottle caps, and mylar on canvas board
I find the images of alchemy fascinating, and since I am in a constant state of spiritual growth myself, I am going to start using this material as a stronger reference, always giving credit to the originator...

My studies of late are the Tarot, Astrology, and the Hermetic Arts... I feel usually like Fox Mulder - constantly seeking but only getting bits and pieces- although my heart and soul understand far more than my mind.
My hope always is that I will gain insight by working with the images-
This time, I most certainly see the Tree of Life illustrated and now I see the correlation of the three pillars in the Major Arcana of the Tarot.
My hope has been to do a completely different sort of tarot imagery from what has been done before...but now that I see the 3 pillars- not sure that I can stray from that layout...
As I stated in my previous post, this painting is a direct reference to the Alchemical images of Rosarium http://www.alchemywebsite.com/Emblems_Rosarium_1550.html
